Clean Freak

Clean Freak
by me(whatever)
to: siinamota- Ghosts in the Forest (1UP Suicide remix)

I wash my sheets every two days,
and vacuum every three.
Every hour I clean my hands
four times before I'm satisfied.

My crumbling shoes are scrubbed once
a week, and all of my clothes
are laundered repeatedly in the machine.
The light switches sparkle, and the door handles gleam.

The silverware I use, I always check, and
the books I read have their covers
wiped, then wiped again. And before I fall
asleep all the doors are 90 degrees to the floor.

I shower in the morning for an hour,
the same at night, and I already know
that all of this is useless.
But I'm filled with thoughts of you.
